    According to the CRL. LOL. Actually, I had them placed a little impractically in these pics. I originally put foam just at the base of the bell, which made them stick out & look a bit goofy. I now have two thin strips going down the front & back inside edges. I think that gives them a more screen-accurate look.

    Ah yes. Thats exactly where I read that. Cool. The spray bottle is cheap enough that if I buy it and it does nothing, I wouldn't be too bummed out.

    I read somewhere recently where some one suggested "bed-liner" for strengthening thin armor. Has anyone tried this? If so, would something like this be useful? h--------Or is a more industrial strength item implied?

    How about adding LMO, TK Boots, ATA, T/MC, CFO, NE, & FLG?

    It's hard to tell from the pics, but up close....this is ten times worse than the pic above with the pauldron.....screen lenses anyone? There also isn't a single piece that doesn't have a rivet or three incorrectly placed or a single part that could easily be upgraded to L1.

    Thanks, Glen. Yeah, I've since trimmed the thighs a tiny bit & repositioned them, so I don't stab the backs of my knees while walking now. I think it would fit perfectly if I could just loose about 5 lbs. Hahaha.

    Thanks!

    I bought a few of Karin's & I love em. Verry accurate.

    Yeah, I had to really heat mine up to give it a nice curve. I used a blow dryer. I like Mathias' idea about the boiling water. I'll have to try that sometime.
  10. bjsavage7
    Agreed. You seek CFO.
  11. bjsavage7
    ^ This.

    I believe NE is a bit on the bigger side, but I'll let the guys who've bought it confirm.

    I just had to repaint my ROTJ boots (since the soles are white) after the paint I had thought was awesome started flaking off. I just used Krylon rattle-can from Walmart. I'll let you know how successful that is...or isn't. lol.
  14. bjsavage7
    Sweet deal there! Good luck with the paint job!
  15. bjsavage7
    Yeah, I agree with Karin. I wouldn't go by that tutorial.
  16. bjsavage7
    Very nice.

    Glad you found some boots. Stormtrooper boots are now becoming about as hard to find as officer boots. Hahaha.

    Dr Sholes is usually a winner.

    Mine fit perfectly, but they do leave a bit of room for some comfy insoles, which is nice for troopng. So, I guess they might run a hair large. Always better to go larger than smaller if ever in doubt.

    If adjusting the shoulder straps doesn't work, try moving down the kidney plate more if you can. It could be riding up on you a bit.

    I use my Air Force Honor Guard gloves under my rubber gloves. I like the cotton versions myself.---------

    I wouldn't trim any off unless you absolutely had to. I'd wait to see how well you can move around once your cod, butt & thighs are all positioned on your body. If it is still causing a problem, then start trimming ever so slightly. Seems like it'd be the thighs that might poke you more.

    Good luck on the boots. I'm anxious to see how they turn out. I know heat can really do a number on biker boots. Seems like I've done a lot of re-gluing on mine the last couple of years.
  24. bjsavage7
    Guess I had that backwards. lol.
  25. bjsavage7
    Here's some great pics in the photo reference section. Now that I see them, I think they look more silver all around. I think the suit pictured with the rivets is Luke's, but I'm not positive ----------
